Below the basic concepts that the Japanese use to create there small Japanese gardens. If you have a small garden which is in a sunny location I highly recommend that you look into making a Japanese garden:

Rock or Ishi - this means rocks are the foundations of Japanese gardens. Wide or arched in a natural looking way, this gives depth to the garde adn Stones used are often tall,

Water or Mizu - The Garden's expert says water is supposed to remind us of the relentless passage of time. Water is calming and is a great way to make the garden look natural.

Plants or Shokobutsu - If the plants are said to have a meaning in Japanese gardens, is to remind us that every season that passes away. Plants play a secondary role to the rocks in Japanese gardens, water gardens, unlike other cultures.

Ornaments or Tenkebutsu - Make frequently used in Japanese gardens, Japanese gardens are very small. These ornaments add an additional interest in traditional Japanese gardens.

Borrowed or Shakkei - This is usually something from outside the garden. The Japanese say it can be things from far, near, high or low.
